I'm looking for the OEM crossbars for my 6th gen ORP Hybrid. I just logged into the Toyota parts website (with my vehicle added) and it's showing me crossbars that I haven't seen before (#PT278-60180). I don't like the look. After searching around a bit, I feel certain that #PT970-60245 are the...

Good question, I was just planning to run it out the back window and close it as much as possible, but that wouldn't be ideal.

Thanks, good to hear confirmation of it in your Pro. And yeah, I crank the music to hide it, and just started noticing the brake pedal vibrating when there's too much bass. There's always something..

Thanks for bumping this thread. I plan to mention it when I bring mine in for its first service appointment. It drives me a little crazy. I’ll try to remember to report back here. Would love to hear if everyone is dealing with the noise or select vehicles, and if it’s fixable.

Thanks for sharing. I’ve been wondering if we’d be able to plug our household fridge in, then router, and a power strip for phones/etc during the next power outage.

OPs issue sounds like a real problem. Mine was only $65k, but I’d be asking for a loaner. Sounds like some people are switching drive modes pretty regularly. I’ve only switched mine a couple times and felt like the transmission needed to “re-learn” my driving behavior after switching modes. My...

LOL, well said. I’ll change my tone on this subject… MY ELBOW IS SOOOOO SORE AFTER BUYING THIS $65k VEHICLE UGGGGHHHHH

lol, I just took mine off today.. Mine was 100% tight/secure. I just don’t like the look of it.

I don’t notice the hard plastics at all. Our other car is an Acura MDX. The hard plastics in the 4Runner have the right feel for the vehicle that it is. I feel just as comfortable in my new 4Runner versus the ‘23 MDX with leather/soft touch/piano black finishes everywhere. I do worry that with...

Anybody else noticed windshield wiper motor noise? It's a faint "whirring" noise, but fairly easy to hear, even with music on and rain coming down. If I hit the wiper once, I don't hear it, but when the wipers are running constant or intermittent, I start to notice the noise. I'll notice that...

What does the brake squeal in reverse mean?

I chose the hybrid because I keep cars for a long time, and plan to keep this one a while too. My previous car felt underpowered, and was dated looking because I bought the last model year of that design. The hybrid has more juice when accelerating. In 10-15 years, the gas model will seem...

Took delivery of my ORP Hybrid in Cutting Edge on Saturday. FWIW to all the lurkers thinking about buying, I don’t think these new 4Runners look great in photos, but look awesome in person.

There’s just nothing in there to see. No prompt to sign up or any services connected.

Haven’t tried yet. I’d been at the dealership for 4 hours yesterday, kids, etc… not sure when I’ll have time to get on the phone with support.
